I wanted to know who has this add on air tank made by the Russian company and how it has performed or any problems encountered. It appears in the video I watched the guy was having a little trouble getting the tanks and stock to align. Also the price listed is 9990 is this in rubles. If so the exchange rate shows that to be about $142.22 dollars. Thanks Bill
Leshiy Add on air tank ?

I had it. My biggest issue was it introduced quite a few points of failure (o-ring wise). I had a leak, and just got sick of chasing it.
it totally works, but I just found I didn’t need it in the end. I shoot the Leshiy in my backyard at 14-15 ft lbs in .25 and get like 50 shots on a 250 fill. I have a tank 8ft from where I shoot... so it just seemed silly.
The price is not $9k
... your math is pretty close on conversion. I think at the time I bought it it was right around that... maybe a little more.

There is a guy in the UK that makes them too. You can post on the Leshiy FB owners page and someone will tag him. I don’t recall his name.
another issue I had was comfort in their pressure testing. The language barrier prevented getting an answer from the Russian gentleman, and the guy in the UK never answered my question. My wife likes my face and hates guns... so

Thanks for taking the time to respond to my post. I don't need the extra air tank when at home or pesting at the local farms when I am close to my fill tank. Its when I go squirrel hunting or after other small game away from a source of air that I feel uneasy that my 20 shot capacity my let me down. Most of the time I am good but hate to have to hike a mile or so back to my source of air. I would not what to carry a buddy tank around as it defeats the small and light freedom of the Leshiy. I think I saw on your web page that the spare tank when it first came out was around $250. If the exchange rate of rubles to dollars makes the cost of $142 that would be an excellent value if it is a well made product. Bill

I personally would get this external reservoir that John Hagan makes if he still makes them. Someone here must have his email.
